HighCycle

HighCycle is a gallery replacement plugin for WordPress. It adds Highslide for image enlargements, and slideshows using the Cycle plugin for jQuery.

It's not working?

Be sure to download Highslide from http://highslide.com/download.php and then upload the 'highslide' directory to the plugins directory.

You should have a directory inside wp-content/plugins/ called 'highcycle', which then contains your 'highslide' directory.

Do I need to purchase a license?

If you're using HighCycle on a commercial website, you must purchase a license from the author of Highslide JS http://highslide.com/

What shortcodes are available?

[gallery]

'order'      => 'ASC',
'orderby'    => 'menu_order ID',
'id'         => $post->ID,
'itemtag'    => 'dl',
'icontag'    => 'dt',
'captiontag' => 'dd',
'columns'    => 3,
'size'       => 'thumbnail'

[slideshow] - Available attributes and defaults:

'id' => $post->ID,
'size' => 'large',
'show' => 'selected',
'showthumbs' => false,
'linkto' => 'large',
'pager' => false,
'per_page' => 12,
'speed' => 2000,
'pause' => 0,
'delay' => 1000

No images are showing in my slideshow?

By default, only images which have been selected by using the drop down in the media details 'Show in Slideshow' are included. Alternatively, include the attribute 'show=all' in your shortcode to show all attached images.

How can I add a slideshow in my template?

Here's an example:

if( class_exists( 'HighCycle' ) ) {
    $show = array(
        'size' => 'home-slide',
        'pager' => false,
        'linkto' => 'url',
        'speed' => 3000,
        'timeout' => 1000
    );
    echo $HighCycle->highcycle_show( $show );
}

It doesn't look the way I want, how can I style the galleries and slideshows?

Look at the markup and apply CSS as needed. Future release will include more included styling.
